Default Hump Hose Necessary?

Are hump hoses necessary? i have a drag gen III kit, will the supplied silicon hoses with t-clamps/bolts be okay? i really dont want that stuff to be blowing off. Experts please advise. Thank you.

I don't know if it would be necessary, there are probably tons of people running without one. If you don't have one already, then run it as is, if you find its poping off, then get one.

Hump hoses are used when a connection isn't exactly straight on. It allows the pipes to flex more than straight couplings. It's like a flex pipe in an exhaust system...

Even T-bolt clamps blow off under high boost. Just weld a bead on the end.
